CVE-2025-9889 PUBLISHED

ContentMX Content Publisher <= 1.0.6 - Cross-Site Request Forgery

Assigner: Wordfence
Reserved: 02.09.2025 Published: 03.10.2025 Updated: 08.04.2026

The ContentMX Content Publisher plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.6. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the cmx_activate_connection function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to bind their own ContentMX connection via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
